Thought for the day: Health is important, but I don’t want to go to the grave regretting chocolate chip cookies left untasted.

Internets down! Mayday! Replacement hardware in… Five days?!?! I’m getting withdrawl shakes already. Shakes fist at Qwest.

Pondering a new writing project; sort of serial mini-fiction. Just need to figure out how to hack mt-twitter to handle two twitter feeds.

Cupping a mug of coffee so hot that contact with the container cannot be maintained, but that’s OK, because my office is FREEZING.

DnD game geekery over the weekend. 3 crits (of 5) on Dragon, with scalebane hammer: good. Totally dysfunctional player group: less good.

At a publishing industry gathering. Not unlike a small rancher touring a packing plant. Unfair: it’s more like a livestock auction.

Random Average: Dogs in the Vineyard: Watching the Watchmen: While digging through stuff in my ga.. Link
Friday, the coldest day of the week
(don’t worry: even if it snows, it’ll melt by tomorrow)
Reading: I’m done with The Book of Lies and haven’t picked up anything to replace it yet, so for now it’s just Wikipedia chain-browsing through articles on Tolkein lore… and some chicken-scratch notes written in pencil by DaveH about 3 months ago (pray for me).
Planning:
- Friday, investigating the online tool WotC provides for character creation in DnD 4.0, followed by maybe watching a zombie movie via On Demand in later afternoon.
- Saturday, the monthly DnD game, plus a trial visit from Scoopoodoo.
- Sunday, a morning of nothing, an afternoon Kaylee-playing, and an evening of wine
tastingdrinking.
Wearing: Jeans and my black tiki-god bowling shirt.
Writing: Notes for a Dogs in the Vineyard game (actually a premise for a game, which involves some fairly current-in-the-news themes, quite by accident) and scene ideas I’ll be adding to Hidden Things shortly.
